from Sculptures of Macho Males (Paean Studio 1978), is that Don Talon in the middle above? (and the back of his balding head, below?)
Just 2 gay films – The Ax Master (1977), and Cruising The Castro (1981) (which I’ve always suspected it was filmed a couples years before this release date), and one bi – Split Personality – wonder if that’s really him. – and that’s it!!??
below, from Falcon’s The Ax Master

Oh yeah, that’s definitely him. I’ve mentioned Paean Studio to you before, but you didn’t show any interest. I got no response. That’s Hal Paul that Don Talon, is kissing, by the way. There’s also a pictorial from Paean, which shows Talon making out with Paul Barresi, of all people. It was a pretty great publishing company, just like John Gamble’s stuff. In Paean, Don Talon is identified as Max.

My previous post tied Hal Paul, Mark Wolf aka Mark Brandon, Paul Barresi, and Fred Halsted, all together. Maybe this time, you’ll bite.

Don Talon was very sexy. I came in contact with him a few times in San Francisco. I used to have PAEAN mag featuring him and his beautiful physique. Wish I still had it. Interested in getting another copy.
possibly more from Paean in these other posts
Boy, it seems Don Talon aka Max, did quite a few photos for Paean Studios. I very much appreciate; the last picture you posted of him, with “Tarp” – mature and hairy! Don’t you just love it! : )
I really think that Talon was “family”, as opposed to gay-for-pay. I want to believe it so!
He doesn’t show any inhibitions about sucking and kissing, which I love! Should I crown him, as a “Porn Divo”? Or maybe he doesn’t have enough credits. His work is rather limited, especially on film. : (
I just love viewing masculine men, enjoying each other! : 0
Here are some more Paean photos of him with Tarp. Maybe you already have them, but I’m impatient for you to post. Please forgive me! : )
(I hope these links work! You can enlarge!)
Here, Tarp has some of the same, mustached cuteness, of Rod Mitchell. Love the necklace. : )

Now it’s Don’s turn – generous!

Warm and sexy! I love when macho men reciprocate! Notice their hands – full body contact! : )

Whew, all this testosterone is making me dizzy! : P
*SIGH* Masculine men are forever! : )
Thanks for this indulgence, BJ! So many great posts! So little time! : )

Inhibitions about sucking and kissing are not red flags for gay-for-pay. It’s the 2020s now, let’s move away from 40+ year-old stereotypes. The litmus test used to be anal sex, now we’re saying it’s something as innocuous as kissing. Not all guys are going to be into everything. I think very few of us are actually wired that way. I’ve been with 100% gay guys who refused to engage in anal sex whatsoever. My husband is not oral because he’s a high-strung germophobe and I personally hate receiving oral sex, I find it boring (even if I LOVE giving it and my partners love receiving because I know I’m good).
I’m over this delusion that we must always refer to people only in the terms by which they identify. If a guy spent all day getting paid to do porn with guys, I don’t care if he calls himself straight on his social media, he’s fucking bi at the very least. The “for pay” “$20 is $20” crowd reinforces a binary (with some overlap for the bi bi bis) when sexuality has more or less been shown to exist on a spectrum while also being fluid. A guy who is more motivated to fuck a guy because money is involved was never part of the “100% pussy all the time” group. Since that dollar sum isn’t terribly high for gay actors, I’d say they were closer to the middle than they’d ever admit. I would never take $5K to put my dick in a vagina. No way. $500K, give me a selection and it would be nice if she had a deep voice. I wouldn’t go around saying “STR8 4 PAY YALL” I’d be like “$500K is a shitload of money that will cover any necessary therapy so go ahead and take the gold star away from this guy and watch me close my eyes and scream some guy names really loud”
I’m really wanting to find a scene from Steam Heat, with Don Talon & 2 young blonds camping out; Don catches boys playing; joins in and tops both.
